The Little Prince to premiere at the West End’s London Coliseum

A spectacular stage adaptation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince is coming to the London Coliseum in March 2025.

The Little Prince will play the London Coliseum for 8 performances from 12 to 16 March 2025.

The show comes to London following sold-out performances in Paris, Sydney, Dubai and on Broadway, and marks 80 years since the publication of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s French novella, one of the best-selling and most translated books ever written.

The UK premiere of The Little Prince is a new stage production promising theatrical spectacle, dance, aerial acrobatics, and ground-breaking video mapping technology, to bring the classic adventure story to life.

An award-winning creative team is led by director and choreographer Anne Tournié, with libretto adaptation and co-direction by Chris Mouron; original music by Terry Truck; video design by Marie Jumelin; costume design by Peggy Housset; lighting design by Stéphane Fritsch; sound design by Tristan Viscogliosi; video projection by Etienne Beaussart; hair and makeup by Carmen Arbues Miro; and props by Aurélie Gandilhon.

Olivier d’Agay, great nephew of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, said in a statement: “From Book to Stage, now The Little Prince is an adventure beyond the pages, breathing new life into a timeless story. This production is more than a show, it’s an homage to the wonder of childhood, echoing the innocence and wisdom Saint-Exupéry so beautifully captured. This production touches the souls and hearts of all who watch, gently reminding us how to see the world anew with the pure, simple eyes of a child, and inspiring us to let our imaginations soar to the farthest reaches of the universe. The Little Prince on stage stands as a tribute to the eternal child within, inviting us to rediscover dreams long forgotten and gaze at the stars with renewed wonder.”

Director Anne Tournié said: “We are thrilled for our company to continue The Little Prince’s world journey to London. On his journey, The Little Prince shares a message of humanity with the many different people and cultures he encounters. We are humbled to bring his story of friendship, loneliness, love, and caring for others and our planet back to the melting pot where Antoine de Saint-Exupéry first created this beloved tale.”

The production will be performed in French with English surtitles.

The Little Prince is produced by Broadway Entertainment Group, and plays the London Coliseum from 12 to 16 March 2025.
